don't bother with a flush by the way, can cause more trouble than they are worth, especially if it's an old engine.

Make sure they use the correct oil, especially if you have a Diesel Particulate Filter.

It might be worth getting them to check and clean (maybe even replace as they're not dear) the turbo oil feed pipe at the same time. There's a small metal gauze filter in it that isn't on any service schedule and often overlooked.
